youngriles 3 Posted January 15, 2011 ...Sam Parkin supposedly only cost Cardiff £100k... I''m sure his wages are a fair amount, but isn''t that the same fee we paid for Wilbraham? I know who I would rather have.Loving the michael brown rumours, but felt today was another reiterance of us needing another top quality striker. Would love to see us bring back Earnie--- isn''t his contract up at the end of the season? Not sure I am in the real world with that one, but he did seem to love it here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icehockeyhair 0 Posted January 15, 2011 Jon Parkin is not Sam Parkin. Plus he''s a terrible fat c''unt who was awful against us for Preston earlier this season, all he did today was one good finish, the rest of the time he was well off the pace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nexus_Canary 1,013 Posted January 15, 2011 More gutted that they got that 6''4 beast Jon Parkin to be honest ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youngriles 3 Posted January 15, 2011 yeh sorry, jon parkin even!thought he was pretty good today though, had a much better touch than Holty did today unfortunately. if he had Holts work ethic and competitive edge he would be a world beater! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Fish Seller 0 Posted January 15, 2011 I caught todays game on an internet stream, in Welsh......I swear that when the camera settled on Jon Parkin halfway through the second half the commentary went as follows."PwllPwywllp pwwmwllpp lpppwwwwplll wywmmwwywl lwypmpmpwl steak and kidney pie and pint of ale pwywwlpwp wwmwlllwmm Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch".

York Canary 28 Posted January 15, 2011 If they did with him what they did with Grant (i.e make him lose weight and become fitter) then he''d be one hell of a player and it''d be like having 2 Holts - scary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grantroederdisaster 0 Posted January 15, 2011 Wilbraham looked sharper more mobile and more in tune with what his teamates were doing toay so it looks like the coaches work at Colney is producng results. Parkins goal was unstoppable and he would certainly add to our squad but thats not going to happen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,265 Posted January 16, 2011 Parkin looked as if he''d eaten our squad.....and was about to start on his team for pudding.... Top unstoppable finish.....but apart from that, and a few bits of stuff - he just ambled around like a sasquatch.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drurys dodgy knee 0 Posted January 16, 2011 Ok ok, maybe parking is a slightly better deal than wilbraham, but there are other comparisons we should look at. For example, on yesterday''s performance, and for his performances all season, I would rather have R Martin in my squad than Bellamy. And Fox completely bossed the middle of the park, with Whittingham having a quiet game by his standards. Let us not complain and criticise! We are a great team right now.
